Apache on XP Home

[Dr Chuff]

Hi All,

I'm trying to get Apache 2 to run on XP Home.
Service is running, but http://localhost doesn't do anything (page not found etc)

Do I need to configure anything?

try http://217.0.0.1 instead

127.0.0.1

[Dr Chuff]

I've just loaded on SP1.
I get "host contacted", but then it just goes on forever trying to load the page (both localhost and 127etc).
I've tried Netscape, same result.

Any ideas before I move to Linux?

Thanks,
Dr C

Do you have a personal firewall running?

[Dr Chuff]

Yes, I did have McAfee firewall running.
I've now turned it off.
No change.

I've also noticed that the CPU is 100 pct when Apache service is running. That can't be right?
